Spiritual discipline is what awakens us to divine reality, not belief.

Gnosis signifies knowledge from experience. Gnosticism, as a field of study, pertains to all the ancient schools of mysteries from both East and West, whose scriptures encompass the practical science of awakening consciousness. Gnosis is not isolated to the first Christians, but permeates all times, cultures, and spaces, for while consciousness is universal, the means of expressing such experiential wisdom of the divine is temporal and idiosyncratic to the language, mentality, and needs of a particular society.

Gnosis is what we have verified through experience and experimentation, predicated upon practical methods and personal effort. It is never the product of a belief system, of adopting a religious or mystical attitude, demeanor, or behavior. It is never achieved through attendance, adherence to, or acceptance from a group, by believing in doctrine or creed. It is the flowering and natural unfolding of the soul, which is created and developed when the proper causes and conditions have been met.

Just as there are laws that govern the physical universe, so too are there spiritual laws, causes, and methods to originate the soul: the awakening of the consciousness.

Therefore, the Greek term γνῶσις gnosis is synonymous with genuine faith. Faith has nothing to do with belief, with accepting or rejecting a concept in the mind or upholding a sentiment in the heart. Faith is what we know from facts, from witnessing and understanding reality. Belief takes no effort to foster or develop, whereas the awakening of consciousness and divine experience requires tremendous discipline and the application of spiritual works.

Are you still a Christian?

No, I don't think so. I still pray, and Jesus is Lord, not just a prophet from our history. When this is trained to you from the womb, it is in your blood. It is truth, it is reality, it is as real and close as the clothes on my back, there is no question about it. It's actually kind of torturous. It's like my mind is caged. How do people have a voice in their head that a perfect Creator can't hear? Who do you talk too? Every thought goes to God, and is directed at God, even though I asked for space. The self-awareness is punishment, not enlightenment, how am I acting, am I being good, is God liking what He's seeing, but wait, I don't care anymore, what will hell be like, after all those years of devotion He'd send me to hell?, wait I don't believe in hell. It's inescapable. So I gave up on that. I found a peace to allow us to be who we are. A woman who is trapped to believe in a God who may or may not be who she was trained to think He is. I'm at peace. We are something undefined. I guess while I am stuck on this side of the spiritual plane, I can accept that.

My digital footprint is hard to face. My Christian writing always received more attention than my other work. I still have strangers messaging me about my first poetry book about God. My mom bought 40 copies when it first published. How am I supposed to show my newer work?

And what am I supposed to do, trash a book that touches other people? I'm so thankful readers support the work, even if it wasn't written by my current self. I have to find a love for my past selves, to accept what is out there with my name on it that I can never remove.

#its funny you sent this yesterday!#i sometimes still try to put more effort into what my belief looks like #either with attempting a new church (that always fails)#or finding a deconstruction podcast #yesterday i decided to try a bible read and a podcast that went along with it #myasks

If you don't mind me asking, how would you like

to see Proverbs 31 used? The part that always bugs me about how it's used is how the churches I've attended completely ignore the part where the woman described is working and trading outside the home. They try and use it as "you should stay home and raise kids" defense.

Mostly, I'd just like to see it used less?

In my experience, there's an undercurrent to the way that this passage gets used that's like, "...and this is the part of the Bible for women!" This really gets under my skin because it just isn't true at all. The WHOLE Bible is for women and the whole Bible is for men. I don't like the insinuation that women should keep returning again and again to this one passage when there's the entire Bible right there to study. Romans is ours too! And Genesis! Isaiah! 2 Timothy! Joel! Revelation!

Biblical womanhood (whatever we mean by that) must begin with women being well-versed in the whole Bible, and that can't happen if Proverbs 31 is treated like a banner chapter for so much of women's min. Proverbs 30 is actually the one part of Proverbs that really moves me (specifically "Feed me with the food that is needful for me...") and I've never gotten to study it in a formal context! Meanwhile, I've sat through seminars and studies and read books and listened to podcasts giving me Proverbial 31 and telling me, "Here ya go," like it's Necessary and Sufficient for Biblical Womanhood. And these two chapters are right next to each other!

Granted, I'm not a guy, but I don't see men's ministry pulling a few specific bits of Scripture and saying, "These are the Men's Chapters." There's just a presumption that the whole of Scripture is relevant to men.

In fact, if you really want to get into it, Proverbs 31 is actually directed more at men than women, saying, "this is the kind of woman you should marry." If we took half the Proverbs 31 talks directed at women and gave them to men, I think that would be a big improvement.

(I know I'm being somewhat hyperbolic here in places. I've been sitting on this ask for a little while knowing that it was basically unavoidable trying to refine my answer and like. Sorry. I am Frustrated and this is what you get from me.)

#i feel like I'm gonna get in trouble over here bc Biblical Gender Roles are Fraught #but I am sick to death of Proverbs 31 #at my Christian school in HS youth group at women's retreat in college min Bible study at conferences in women's books and podcast and and #totally sick of it #my problem with Proverbs in general is that it often seems as though 90% of its content is said more clearly and more powerfully #elsewhere in Scripture #and I think that goes extra super quadruple for 'how do I live a Godly life'?#that's so much of the Bible guys!!!!!#ask me hard questions #only thou art holy #i enjoy being a girl

Father Mike Shmitz: As we all know, there is a correlation between Joseph, who guarded the grain of Egypt to distribute it in a time of famine, and Joseph, who guarded Christ, the bread of life--

Me: WHAT

#hnnnngh I am hungry and this is life to me #really wish I could've talked with my grandpa about this before he died. the Josephs were his favorite biblical figures.#bible #christianity #Bible in a year podcast

people were saying in the camlann twitch stream that dai is a dean girl because of his "call me dean winchester" line in episode one, and i was about to make a post arguing that he is not, in fact, a dean girl, but dean-coded, but then i did a quick google search and it turns out "x-coded y girl" terminology is more complicated than i thought so i'm actually not sure now so post cancelled

anyway if any supernatural girlies wanna help me figure out if my beloved dai is dean-coded or a dean girl (or both), please go listen to camlann (episodes 1 & 2 available now wherever you get your podcasts)

#i thought it was like. x-coded is whichever character youre most like but y girl is whichever character youre the biggest fan of #but apparently theres more going on there and im not well versed enough in supernatural to suss it out #anyway go listen to camlann!#its like supernatural but with Wales instead of the US #arthurian legend instead of whatever mix of folklore/mythology/xtian bible stuff spn uses #and its gay instead of homophobic #camlann #camlannpod #camlann podcast

The controversial Gospel of Judas is a powerful scripture depicting the relationship between betrayal and transcendence. While religious groups intensely, fearfully, and dogmatically contest its authenticity, this scripture is clarified through a comparative study of Samael Aun Weor's writings. Just as an actor plays a part in a film and should not be condemned for it, likewise the Apostle Judas should not be denigrated for the role he played in a necessary cosmic drama led by Jesus, the Master Aberamentho. By understanding who Judas is in us, we can better understand the ways we betray our own selves while striving for divine reality.
